You would be surprised at the amount of bans we hand out on a weekly basis.
There are times though that they don't look like spammers, can't help that.
I know we don't always look like we're there but we're constantly checking everything in the background and for me personally, I use invisible mode all the time so that spammers don't know I'm online.
